Window Canvas by Amanda M

Hellloooooo Creative Lovelies.

Today I have for you a canvas with a view.

Products Used

First off I have done some stenciling to set my scene.

Next give the chipboard & resin pieces a coat of white gesso.

I have used some metallic paint for the top of the window and some blue distress paint for the window,

then using a crackle stamp and stamp pad I have done some random stamping to age the window.

 

I painted the leaves with different coloured green metallic paints.

Cut lots of leaves with a die cutting machine and colour with the same green metallic paints as the chipboards.

Now to make the windowbox for the flowers.

1st I have used a nurofen box, but anything similar will do, use some masking tape

along the bottom and around the sides, then cut down to the top of the tape.

measure enough tape to fit the front and sides and stick to a flat surface, I have then stencilled

a cobblestone pattern and let dry. Then using some super- tac glue adhere to the box.

Colour the finished window-box with a dark gray colour and then using

some 450 Quick dry Glue add some artificial moss.

Again using the 450 Quick-Dry Glue add your flowers how you like.

I have now added some colour to the background with some yellow, green and Brown,

I have used a mixture of different sprays.

Now start adding your chipboard pieces to the scene using Super-Tac Glue

I have used the 450 Quick-Dry to add the window-box

And finaly glue all the die-cut vines and resin pieces on with some Tiger Grip so nothing is going anywhere.

Here are some more pics of the finished canvas with a couple of close-ups.

I hope you have been inspired by my creation

and keep evolving your inner artist.
